摘　　要：目的:探讨平衡针治疗急性咽炎咽痛的即时疗效。方法:74例病人按就诊号随机分为治疗组和对照组,其中治疗组36人给予平衡针针刺"咽痛穴"治疗,对照组38人给予假穴位针刺,评价治疗后1min视觉模拟评分(VAS)及安全指标。结果:治疗后1min治疗组及对照组VAS分别为(2.11±1.88)分和(3.39±1.94)分,治疗组优于对照组(P<0.05)。治疗组愈显率为44.4%(16/36),优于对照组的10.5%(4/38)。结论:平衡针治疗及假穴位针刺治疗皆能迅速缓解急性咽炎咽痛症状,平衡针疗效优于假穴位针刺疗效。Objective To observe the instant effect of ＂Balance Acupuncture＂ in relieving sore throat in patients with a- cute pharyngitis. Methods A total of 74 acute pharyngitis patients with sore throat were randomly assigned to treatment group （Balance Acupuncture, n =36） and placebo acupuncture group （sham acupoint, n =38）. Patients of the Balance Acupuncture group were treated by acupuncture stimulation of bilateral ＂Yantong＂ （sore throat） point （the mid-point of the second metacarpal bone on the radial side） and those of the sham acupoint group were treated by acupuncture stimulation of the sham point （the site 1 cm lateral to the mid-point between the ulnar endpoJnt of the cubic transverse striation and that of the wrist-palm transverse stria- tion）. After insertion, the acupuncture needle was manipulated repeatedly till ＂Deqi＂ for patients of the treatment group but not manipulated for patients of the placebo acupuncture group, then removed immediately. The VAS （Visual Analogue Scores） were assessed 1 min after the treatment in addition to safety index records. Results Before the treatment, the VAS values of the treatment group and sham acupoint group were （5.25± 1.51 ） points and （4.83± 1.59） points, respectively, which had no significant differences between the two groups （P〉0.05）. One minute after the treatment, VAS values of the treatment and sham acupoint groups were （2. 11±1.88） points and （3.39 ±1.94） points, respectively, both decreasing significantly （P〈0.01）. The effect of the former group was significantly superior to that of the sham acupoint group （P〈0.05）. Conclusion Both Balance Acupuncture and sham-acupoint acupuncture treatments can relieve sore throat in acute pharyngitis patients, and the therapeutic effect of Balance Acupuncture treatment is obviously better.
